It is crucial to ask for strength from God as human efforts are insufficient, and true strength comes through the Holy Spirit in our inner man.
Ephesians 3:16 highlights Paul's request that believers be 'strengthened with might by His Spirit in the inner man.' This power is essential for navigating the trials of life and standing firm in faith. Christians acknowledge their weakness and dependency on God, realizing that natural strength can falter. By seeking strength from God, they are equipped to face spiritual battles and endure hardships. This reliance on divine strength emphasizes the need for the Holy Spirit's work in their lives, leading them to grow in faith and obedience.
